America

By JoAnn Wilder

At an early age, we learn to pledge our allegiance,
Finally, we learn the meaning of
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

  When those words of freedom are attacked,
We erupt in pride and defensiveness,
We are hurt,, angry, and MAD.
If you do not like an angry woman,
You will not like our reaction.

  Pride in the RED, WHITE and BLUE,
Pride in being free,
Pride in Freedom
Oh, whoever you are,
PRIDE is stronger than you.

   Patriotism,
          Righteousness,
Integrity,
                                     Determination in our reaction,
                   Equality in mankind,

PRIDE and PROUD to be an American.
GOD BLESS AMERICA
